The Umbrella Prints Trimmings Competition is well and truely underway... and with only 3 days left to pin your favourite I am getting super super excited to see who wins... There are so many gorgeous things being made ... it makes me want to get out my Trimmings and sew up a mini quilt and use the Trimmings of the Trimmings to collage a pretty picture.
I am especially loving the creative works of those who didn't actually use the fabric for sewing...
I once used some fabric in an illustration many moons ago and it was that illustration that got the attention of a publisher that then got me wanting to design my own fabric! Because if I used my own fabric there would be no copyright issues in republishing the fabrics in my illustrations.... that's when Umbrella Prints got started (well there is alot more to that story, including getting together with my amazing friend & business partner Amy.. but I am not going to bore you with that now we have some serious pinning to do!!) what a rediculously large side step of a project, maybe one day I will get back to that book..
In the mean time I am more than happy to marvel at what others have been making with our fabric. Make sure you pin your favourite too!
